Progress

Some progress has been made on my Splendid Sampler blocks.

The string block is my version of the selvedge block. None of my saved selvedges were attractive or in the right color families for this quilt. The Dresden plate block isn't sewn down as yet. I'm saving that for when I sew down my Quilty 365 circles. I really hate threading my machine with the invisible thread!
I took yesterday off from sewing....new book release made it to my Kindle and I spent the day reading it. This is what I woke up to Monday morning...

So pretty...so glad I'm retired and no longer have to deal with getting to work! The remainder is still with us and very slippery. Good day to stay in and sew.
